Snowflake Delight!

Christmas is now right around the corner and for some of you that means a cold snowy time of the year, but for me down the bottom of the world in New Zealand it means lovely hot sunny weather :)

The layout I have to share with you today is one of my best friends and her gorgeous wee man Oscar. This was winter last year and where they live, about an hour from me, is perfect for snowy photos for scrapping, which is great for me :) Why? Because I love snowflakes and anything scrappy that incorporates that, so Altitude was screaming my name lol :)

For the month of December we are also joining with Leaky Shed Chipboard, this product is amazing!!! So easy to use and alter - for the snowflakes I have covered them in gesso and then applied Pearlescents and glitter paste before finally adding a jewel to the center.

The chipboard oval is also painted with gesso but this time I only applied Pearlescents to it, and then arranged my cluster around it.

To create all the layers I have some popped some up with foam and then tucked pieces of Noteworthy in here and there. Ive die cut my poinsettias and applied jewels to the centres. The snowflakes I have fussy cut from. The large snowflake is actually a Christmas decoration :)
